Last night was one to remember for the Ex-Liverpool FC man as he struck twice in Celta Vigo's 4-1 win against Barcelona outshining his former Liverpool teammate Luis Suarez.

Celta Vigo started strongly with Nolito scoring a curler in the 26th minute and by the 30th minute, Iago Aspas had already scored a one-on-one chip after being put through on goal.

Aspas struck again to make it three early in the second half, Celta Vigo's Goalkepper Sergio Alvarez made a few important saves as Barcelona tried to find a way back into the game. Neymar scored one late goal but it ended up as a consolation because Celta responded immediately with a fourth taking the match further away from visitors.

"We can only congratulate Celta, they played a very complete game." Luis Enrique told journalists after the game. "This result should help us to see that this season will be difficult. Now we have to think about improving."

Celta Vigo now sits comfortably in the second place in la liga level onpoints with table toppers Real Madrid.
